Leuconostoc mesenteroides

 

Leuconostoc mesenteroides is a species of lactic acid bacteria associated with fermentation, under conditions of salinity and low temperatures (such as lactic acid production in fermented sausages). In some cases of vegetable and food storage, it was associated with pathogenicity (soft rot, slime and unpleasant odor). L. mesenteroides is approximately 0.5-0.7 µm in diameter and has a length of 0.7-1.2 µm, producing small grayish colonies that are typically less than 1.0 mm in diameter. It is facultatively anaerobic, Gram-positive, non-motile, non-sporogenous, and spherical. It often forms lenticular coccoid cells in pairs and chains, however, it can occasionally forms short rods with rounded ends in long chains, as its shape can differ depending on what media the species is grown on. L. mesenteroides grows best at 30°C, but can survive in temperatures ranging from 10°C to 30°C. Its optimum pH is 5.5, but can still show growth in pH of 4.5-7.0.

Cancer Risk: Acrylamide AGEs

Minimizing Cancer Risk: Understanding the Relationship Between Acrylamide, Advanced Glycation End Products, and Cooking Tips Tweet Follow @AZSPerformance In recent years, concerns about cancer risk associated with dietary choices have gained significant attention. Researchers have identified two substances, acrylamide and advanced glycation end products (AGEs), that are formed during certain cooking processes and have been linked to an increased risk of cancer. In this article, we will explore the connection between acrylamide, AGEs, and cancer, as well as provide practical tips to help you reduce your exposure to these potentially harmful compounds. Acrylamide and Cancer Risk: Acrylamide is a chemical compound that forms naturally during high-temperature cooking methods, such as frying, baking, and roasting. It is commonly found in foods like potato ...
